Daily Notes- A Cloudy Sunday- Might Rain


 Still undergoing renovations.  It's had two different hills under the tree.  Don't know.  The little tree is from the "way back times" when I had a friend named Kay who lived in Georgia and I went to visit and we sewed things.  Kay wanted to make a tree quilt the week I was there.  She set me up with the sewing machine and a movie to watch and I sewed all the trees together.  Hundreds of trees. While she did something else.  I should have known the friendship was ending.  I also had to cut the tree pieces. And there was ironing.  I was kept very busy.

The fun part was going to so MANY different quilt shops to buy white fabric with black designs.  And greens for the trees.  This tree was extra.  Well, I have a small bag filled with the extra trees.  And other parts.  Which I can't figure out how they went together.  Anyone remember this quilt pattern??? Lines of trees.

Now that I am looking at the picture- I don't like that hill under the tree as much as I do in person.  I'll keep the little star under the tree but replace the hill with something darker.  Possibly some of the black background fabric with white designs.  Some of that is in the bag.  I got the bag down from the Magic Attic around Christmas.  I was going to use the extra trees to make the potholders.  But they would have been too big--the potholders.  But that Hill is going.  Away.

It's dark inside the house.  And wet and raining outside.  I'm really glad I made that pot of chicken soup for husband.  Perfect Chicken Soup Weather.  I added corn chips to my bowl of vegetable chili yesterday (eaten while watching a Monk marathon on Hallmark). Each day I add one additional item to the chili.  Day before it was shredded yellow cheese.  Today?  If I had sour cream I would add that.  But I don't.  But I'll give the fridge the once over. In case.....  But before any of that- the Hill Must Go.
